bug#2096: 23.0.60; po-mode duplicates header

[Torsten Bronger]

I have a po file opened in the background, and every time I want to exit Emacs, Emacs reminds me of saving this po file although I haven't changed anything.  Apparently, Emacs has silently duplicated its header so that it starts with

This is a bug in po-mode.el which is part of gettext, not Emacs.  It is
already fixed in gettext CVS since yours truly had reported it some time
ago, see
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2008-08/msg00006.html.

Cheers,
       Sven
